Location of Intern reporters output files like corbertura or html report

Question

I'm using Grunt with Intern and set some reporters to lcovhtml and cobertura:

grunt.initConfig({
        intern: {
            runner: {
                options: {
                    config: 'tests/intern',
                    runType: 'runner',
                    reporters: ['pretty', 'lcovhtml','junit','cobertura']
                }
            }
        },

Is there any configuration to control output directory of these files for all or each reporter?

Answer 1

For example, by adding a parameters reportDir to the options object defined in your Gruntfile.js, you can update intern/lib/reporters/lcovhtml.js with:

define([
    'dojo/node!istanbul/lib/collector',
    'dojo/node!istanbul/lib/report/html',
    'dojo/node!istanbul/index'
], function (Collector, Reporter) {
    var collector = new Collector(),
        reporter = new Reporter();
    //...
});

with:

define([
    '../args',
    'dojo/node!istanbul/lib/collector',
    'dojo/node!istanbul/lib/report/html',
    'dojo/node!istanbul/index'
], function (args, Collector, Reporter) {
    var collector = new Collector(),
        reporter = new Reporter({ dir: args.reportDir });
    //...
});

You can propagate a similar update in cobertura.js and junit.js reporters.

Note: I documented this approach in https://github.com/theintern/intern/issues/71. The patch for the corresponding issue has not yet been published (pushed to Intern 2.3).
